    Yi-Ying Lu
    This document outlines the six stages of cold disease progression according to the Shan Han Lun. It begins with the Prevalence of Wind Channel Pattern and progresses through Tai Yang, Yang Ming, Shao Yang, Tai Yin, and Shao Yin stages. Each stage is characterized by its pattern, symptomatology, and recommended acupuncture points. The stages represent the progression of cold from the exterior Wei Qi channels inward and the reversal of symptoms from more recent to more chronic. Digestive complaints occur in several stages and require differentiation based on principles of heat and cold or types of thirst.

    Taiyin – no thirst
    Shaoyin – thirst for warm fluids only (Yang Xu) or dry mouth at night (Yin Xu)
